Parents from poor and socially backward classes, especially of urban areas are given awareness programmes regarding the problems of children, the factors that cause them to leave their homes and become school dropouts. They are also educated in abandoning violence in their dealings with children and are taught ways and means through which they can be caring parents in spite of their hard situations in life. Navajeevan has been able to conduct 80 such training programmes, involving over 4800 parents.
